I would have to disagree with the whole "2-pole is faster" thing.

The two pole motors on the market are three slot stators. That means they need a lot of turns per pole to make significant torque.

A lot of turns per pole means high inductance.

High inductance means power at high RPM is significantly reduced.

Most four pole motors on the market (and our designs also) are 12 slot designs. This means very few turns per pole (often only 1 turn.)

This means they have low inductance, and can make significant power at very high RPMs.

Look at the speed records. All set by four pole, 12 slot motors.
